Favorite one-line in a song

So fuck needles, fuck smoke
Fuck lines that make the sinus choke
Fuck chasers, trails, fuck waves and rails
Fuck hang-overs, fuck hallucinations
Regurgitations, mandatory sentences and UA tracing
Blind my insight and dull the common sense
Give me INHIBITION, kill the superstition and the confidence
Built the tolerance, now it's more that I consume it

Atmosphere - God's Bathroom
 
Come on, now.
I hear youre feeling down.
Well I can ease your pain,
Get you on your feet again.

from pink floyds comfortably numb.
 
No, I wasn't worried at all
Dreams are what you live for
Waiting for the light to turn green
Carry me home
To the kindest eyes that i've ever seen
Carry me home
Well can you tell me how will it be now
how will it be...

And so, i remember you
I remember the days and the thousands of ways you pulled me through
And dreamed of all the things you've seen
Of all the faces and all of the places you have been
And now you have no phone and you have no name and you have no number
And it comes to the end in the blink of an eye and it makes me wonder

The Chameleons ~ Tears
 
today i tought about that line from murs - bad man

"Now we could put this all behind us and make things work
Or I could get behind you cuz I like that skirt"
 
daylight licked me into shape
i must have been asleep for days
and moving lips to breathe her name
i opened up my eyes
and found myself alone
alone
alone
above a raging sea
that stole the only girl i loved
and drowned her deep inside of me

you
soft and only
you
lost and lonely
you
just like heaven


The Cure ~ just like heaven
 
"god damn right its a beautiful day."

"Cause once in awhile you get shown the light in the strangest of places if you look at it right"

Judee Sill - Jesus was a Cross Maker

One time I trusted a stranger
'cause I heard his sweet song
And it was gently enticing me
though there was something wrong
When I turned he was gone

Blinding me his song remains reminding me
he's a bandit and a heartbreaker
Oh but Jesus was a crossmaker
 
Massive Attack - Five Man Army

She's always on time cause the girl's got rhythm
 
Swimming laps around a bottle of Louis the Thirteenth
Jumpin' off of a mountain into a sea of Codeine
I'm at the top of the top, but... still I climb
And if I should ever fall, the ground would then turn to wine
Pop, pop, I feel like flying, then I feel like frying, then...
(I feel like dying)
I can mingle with the stars, and throw a party on Mars
I am a prisoner, locked up behind Xanac bars
 
Hits from the Bong - Cypress Hill

She never complains,
When I hit Mary.
 
Fertile circle turned fertile crescent, via bad investment. Despised every second, but I guess I learned my lesson...

Aesop Rock.

You will come down soon too
You will come down too soon

This body. this body holding me. be my reminder here that I am not alone in
This body, this body holding me, feeling eternal all this pain is an illusion...
Of what it means to be alive!!!!

Tool ~ Parabola

I've got a lot to teach but even more to learn
Atmosphere ~ The Woman with the Tattooed Hands

Sorry this isn't one line, but it's very poignant.

I stand alone burned every bridge over the trouble water
No longer hiding from my personality disorder
You want to die in my life then come and stay
in madness' favorite little corner
Cause even Shadows have Shadows
and my secrets are eating me eagerly feeding

I scream in my dreams Away but they keep on defeating me
Even Shadows have Shadows
Welcome to the dusty subconscious of an actor
Who murdered his childhood to stop the audience's laughter
Even Shadows have Shadows
I'm about to break free from my fears
When I don't like what I see

and I can't feel what I hear
Even Shadows have Shadows
So don't judge a book by it's cover
Cause my story is fucked up as any other!


Eyedea & Abilities ~ Even Shadows Have Shadows

"Don't cry now. Don't you cry, don't you cry anymore... Sleep in the stars. Don't you cry, dry your eyes on the wind" - Robert Hunter/Bird Song
thats an old dead song... those were the days when jerry was alive



I've been waking up at sunrise
I've been following the light across my room
I watch the night receive the room of my day
Some people say the sky is just the sky
But I say
Why deny the obvious child?

When they kick out your front door
How you gonna come?
With your hands on your head
Or on the trigger of your gun


The Clash, Guns of Brixton
